arXiv:2606. 05516v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Zeroth-order (ZO) optimization enables memory-efficient fine-tuning of large language models (LLMs) using only forward passes, but it remains unclear how useful adaptation is distributed across layers.

arXiv:2607. 00510v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Knowing which training examples drive outputs is fundamental to auditing, correcting, and understanding language models, yet for modern LLMs this remains expensive, approximate, and largely post-hoc.

arXiv:2607. 07953v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Self-attention lets each token retrieve information from the full context, but its quadratic cost in sequence length limits training and inference at long context.

arXiv:2607. 07984v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Neural architecture search (NAS) methods have grown increasingly efficient, yet they remain bounded by manually engineered search spaces that require substantial domain expertise and must be rebuilt for every new task.

arXiv:2606. 12117v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Benchmark scores often misrepresent a large language model's (LLM's) knowledge, because they rely, e.

arXiv:2607. 11746v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: With deep neural networks (DNNs) increasingly deployed on edge devices, hardware (HW)-aware optimization techniques--such as HW-aware compression and HW-aware neural architecture search (HW-NAS)--have become essential.
